The job is only done when it's done right, it's not only common courtesy, it's common sense.

"The inspection revealed hidden structural damage that would have potentially cost us thousands of dollars of unexpected repairs. Mr. Quinn was very thorough in his inspection and we were extremely happy with his thoroughness. He did not just walk around the house with a check list and look at the house. He actually did what I expect when someone inspects a house and crawled in on and around the entire house. I would highly recommend him and will look to hire him again when we find another property we are interested in. Thank you!"

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

Technically, you can do a home inspection yourself. Still, it is not recommended unless you or someone you know has a background in the construction trades to be able to identify any issues. A certified home inspector is trained and has the experience necessary to make a thorough and trustworthy assessment of the condition of a home. If you need a home inspection when buying and selling a home, a professional home inspector is often required.

Depending on location, sellers are often legally required to disclose a home’s defects to buyers, even if the home is being sold as-is. Certain types of defects, such as asbestos, mold, previous water damage, structural issues, and other safety risks, may be required to be disclosed, so check local laws to see what needs to be disclosed and what doesn’t.

Yes, an inspection contingency is likely a good idea, regardless of if you’re buying a new or older home. It can give you a set number of days to respond to objections that might have been found in the inspection so you can make an informed buying decision.

For real estate transactions in most states, it is up to the buyer to pay for a home inspector to conduct a home inspection. With the buyer footing the bill, it allows them to choose an inspector they trust to conduct the inspection and review the report themselves to note any major and minor issues.

Hiring a reliable home builder is an essential task, but there are a few questions you can ask a potential builder to ensure you they are trustworthy and up to the task:

  • How long do you expect the process to take?

  • Are you fully licensed and insured?

  • How much of the work will you subcontract?

  • Will you pull all of the necessary permits for the job?

  • How long is the builder’s warranty you include with your work?

  • How do you handle resolution for issues I might have with the finished product?

  • How much experience do you have?
